The shed roses

as I call them.

I picked the last 4 and brought them into my mum in the nursing home. Plus a large bowl of plum crumble from our own tree. I managed to time it so it was still hot and she had for her dessert. I brought a tub of vanilla yoghurt to go with it.

The plums are sweet and delicious. The blackcurrants are in abundance despite no real sunny weather for 4 weeks. Nature is amazing.

When I drive home from visiting her, a feeling of gloom and ‘flatness’ descends on me.

By the way, I forgot to mention that I have been appointed the new Ambassador to Luxembourg.
